Why Name Listener?!

May be I am too naive to know, If you have reason, then please share.

With the following configuration, environment can be easily migrated/duplicated with minimal or no change.
The only change would be port for local_listener if port# changed.

Also, easier to use and maintain.

local_listener=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=)(PORT=1591))
lsnrctl status
tnsnames.ora entry ***not*** required

With the following configuration, environment can be migrated/duplicated requiring multiple changes.

local_listener=LISTENER_NAME
lsnrctl status LISTENER_NAME
tnsnames.ora entry required for LISTENER_NAME

If listener is named, then does every environment has different names?

Security will mostly likely be used for justification but I don’t see it.
